"future", "intend", and similar expressions to identify such forward-looking
statements. Investors should be aware that all forward-looking statements
contained within this filing are good faith estimates of management as of the

risks faced by us as described in the "Risk Factors" section and elsewhere in
this report.
All written forward-looking statements made in connection with this Form 10-K

ITEM 1. BUSINESS
GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT OUR COMPANY
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
RedStone Literary Agents Inc. ("RLA") was incorporated in Nevada on July 20,
2010 and is considered a development stage company. At that time Mary Wolf was
appointed CEO, President, Secretary, CFO, Treasurer and Director. The Board
voted to seek capital and begin development of our business plan. We received
our initial funding of $15,000 through the sale of common stock to Mary Wolf who
purchased 3,000,000 shares of our Common Stock at $0.005 per share on July 20,
2010.
During 2011 the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1 with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission to register a total of 3,000,000 shares of
common stock for sale at a fixed price of $0.015 per share. The Registration
Statement was declared effective on January 27, 2012. This is the initial
offering of common stock of RedStone Literary Agents Inc. and no public market
currently exists for the securities being offered. The offering is being
conducted on a self-underwritten, all-or-none basis, which means our officer and
director will attempt to sell the shares. She will sell the shares and intends
to offer them to friends, relatives, acquaintances and business associates. In
offering the securities on our behalf, she will rely on the safe harbor from
broker-dealer registration set out in Rule 3a4-1 under the Securities and
Exchange Act of 1934. We intend to open a standard, non-interest bearing, bank
checking account to be used only for the deposit of funds received from the sale
of the shares in this offering. If all the shares are not sold and the total
offering amount is not deposited by the expiration date of the offering, the
funds will be promptly returned to the investors, without interest or deduction;
however there is no assurance we will be able to return the funds as we are not
holding the money in a trust or similar account and a creditor may be able to
execute a judgment against the funds. The shares will be offered at a fixed
price of $.015 per share for a period of one hundred and eighty (180) days from
the effective date, unless extended by our board of director for an additional
90 days. The offering will end on July 25, 2012.
The company does not consider itself to be a blank check company as defined in
Rule 419 of Regulation C of the Securities Act of 1933. The company has a
specific business plan and is seeking the funds to execute its business plan.
Rule 419 of Regulation C promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 applies to
companies having no specific business plans other than to engage in a merger or
acquisition with an unidentified company or companies, or other entity. We do
not anticipate or intend to be used as a vehicle for a reverse merger or merge
with or acquire another company in the foreseeable future. We are aggressively
3
pursuing our business plan given the current financial status of the company and
the fact that we were very recently incorporated. The corporation was formed for
the purpose of executing a specific business plan developed by our founder, Mary
S. Wolf, as set forth in the prospectus. We are moving forward with our
development as defined in the business plan. Based upon the above, we believe we
are not within the scope of Rule 419.
PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS OR SERVICES AND THEIR MARKETS
RLA intends to represent authors to publishers. RLA will negotiate contract
details and provide representation if any part of the book is illegally
reproduced. RLA will be selective about who they will represent, and it is
usually helpful for an author to be referred by people who work in or are
familiar with the publishing industry. It is our intention to first focus in the
genre of health and wellness as we currently have relationships with some
published and unpublished authors in the United States.
NEEDS ASSESSMENT
The process for getting literary work published can be an arduous one for some
authors. For each author under contract we will conduct a "Needs Assessment" to
determine who else may already exist in the category of literature. From there
we will determine the feasibility of making the new title a success. In
addition, sending the completed manuscript to the right publisher is extremely
important. Valuable time can be wasted by sending manuscripts to publishers who
are not publishing in that genre. This is why a proper "Needs Assessment" is
essential. We will determine which publisher is best suited for the manuscript
and which publishers are publishing material that is similar to the author by
visiting bookstores. Bookstore shelves offer a wealth of information, including
the books the author will be competing against, how popular the genre is, and
which publishers are involved in the market. Similar information can usually be
found online (publishers' websites and online bookstores). It is probably the
most important aspect of the entire process.
BOOK PROPOSAL GUIDELINES
The most important aspect of a manuscript submission to publishers is the book
proposal. The author needs to prepare a carefully detailed and compelling
proposal to convince a publisher that his or her book is worth publishing. The
proposal is valuable in negotiating a good sale by allowing publishers to
evaluate the project quickly and to determine their ability to market the book
successfully. The proposal represents the promise of a book; it must be
distinctive and engaging so that the editor becomes enthusiastic about signing
the project. The difference between a good proposal and an excellent one can
determine whether an offer is received - and can make the difference between a
modest advance and a large one.
Every book is unique, but almost every proposal contains the elements listed
below:
ABOUT THE BOOK
We will prepare a brief (three to five pages) overview and introduction to the
project. This section contains the information that would be used in the jacket
copy, book synopsis and market survey.
We will describe the reasons an author was inspired to write the book and what
makes it valuable. We will be sure to explain what makes the book different from
other, similar books and mention any special features or approaches offered.
The author will give a two or three paragraph synopses of the contents,
illustrating in detail the logic his or her book follows to satisfy its premise.
Addtionally, he or she will explain why he or she as an author is uniquely
qualified to write this book. Included will be relevant experience and
credentials, as well as any supporting professional expertise or publishing
credits.
4
MARKET & COMPETITION
We will address who is the audience for this book, and why they need to buy this
book, including providing demographic data that reinforces the writer's
hypothesis.
We will address the competition. List each title that would be in direct
competition with the book, along with the author, publisher, and year of
publication. We will explain why the book would be better, or how it fills a
vacant niche in the market.
CHAPTER OUTLINE
We will provide a brief chapter-by-chapter outline of the book. Here we try to
convey both the content and tone of each chapter succinctly. Where possible, we
use quotations, anecdotes and examples to describe the chapters.
SAMPLE CHAPTER
We will include one or two sample chapters, preferably not the introduction or
first chapter, to give the publisher an idea of the writing style and the actual
content of the book.
PUBLISHING DETAILS
We will describe the physical form the Author plans for his/her book.
Included will be:
* Proposed book length, measured in words
* The number and type of photographs and/or illustrations to be used
* Any special considerations for book size, format, design or layout
* Estimated time the author will need to deliver the completed
manuscript.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
The author will provide a detailed biography of him or herself, with emphasis on
background experience in the respective field and credentials relevant to his or
her book. If applicable, we will suggest attaching a copy of his or her resume
or curriculum vitae.
The goal for any author who comes to RedStone Literary Agents is to get their
work in front of potential publishing houses for commercialization. In order to
do that certain milestones will have to be achieved to ensure the
marketabilityand appeal for the title is optimized.
1. Conduct Genre Audit: It is imperative to know who has published work on the
topic at hand before. Questions to be asked will focus on geographical regions,
metrics on volume and retail feedback. Additionally, the audit will include what
modalities were used to promote the book online and offline. This process will
be done on a fee for service basis as some genres will require more research
time and analysis.
2. Synopses of current work will have to be edited and put in a marketing
context for procuring potential publishers. This will be done on an hourly fee
with a 25% top up on any fees paid to the editing team.
3. Once work is placed and represented with a publisher, RedStone will take 25%
of the advance fee paid to an author as placement fee.
4. RedStone will also negotiate an allowance to be paid for PR representation to
promote the launch of the book on and offline.
To date two authors have been approached in the lifestyle and wellness category.
Both have self-published work previously and are looking to obtain
representation for current draft manuscripts. These authors have been brought
5
forward to RedStone through a PR contact that has successfully represented this
genres and her work resulted in best seller placements. Contracts for both
authors are expected to be confirmed by late summer or early fall 2011. We will
also use social media to promote our services for representation on Twitter and
Facebook.
Sample Revenue Model with 3 Authors being represented:
Utilizing an average retail price of each book at $9.95, revenue breakdown would
be:
$1.95 to author
$4.00 to marketing/promotion
$1.00 for printing collateral
$3.00 Net Royalty Fee to RedStone
Selling an average 20,000 Books at $3.00 per copy (Net Royalty Fee) = $60,000
per author
Total Anticipated Revenue to Redstone: $180,000
The revenue numbers are estimates and there is no guarantee that we would be
able to sign 3 authors or that the books would sell at the price and quantity
being quoted due to external factors out of our control.
Management believes we will need to sign a minumum of 4 authors per year to be
profitable. Each contract would be for a period of 18 months, 6 months for the
author to write the book and 12 months for the promotional period. At any given
time we would then have a minimum of 4 to 6 authors under contract.
DISTRIBUTION METHODS OF THE PRODUCTS OR SERVICES
Once a book has been published it will need a Distributor. If we use an
established publishing house they will already have distribution contacts. If we
choose to self-publish or publish with a very small house that does not have
distribution set up, we will work with the author to make this contact.
Distributors will generally take 55-65% of the cover price (40% of which is
going to the bookseller). We will work with the author to make sure their
pricing formula has taken this into account.
ENGAGING A PR CAMPAIGN:
All Publicists know that the first step to obtaining good publicity is the media
list. Knowing where to mail review copies and having the full contact
information for follow-up calls and letters is vitally important. Many
publishers have a publicity department that will handle this while the book is
on the front list. However, once the next season is published, or we have
self-published the book, the job of getting publicity exposure for the book
falls to the authors themselves. In some cases we may engage a publicist to keep
the interest in relevant markets going.
Once we have our contacts in order, we will have to start writing press releases
and dealing with the media. This is a very different process than that of
writing a book.
STATUS OF ANY PUBLICLY ANNOUNCED NEW PRODUCT OR SERVICE
None.
COMPETITION, COMPETITIVE POSITION IN THE INDUSTRY AND METHODS OF COMPETITION
Getting a literary agent can be the first vital step towards getting published.
Writers who want to become authors are interested in one thing only and that is
writing. They do not want to worry about how or what is involved in the process
that eventually leads to getting their work published and in bookstores for the
6
masses to engage and enjoy. We believe also that since we have chosen a niche
(health and wellness) that we can be very focused in our submissions and
targeting the right distributor/publisher.
Additionally, non-published writers have a more difficult time getting the
attention of the bigger literary agent as often they already represent an author
in the said genre.
SOURCES AND AVAILABILITY OF RAW MATERIALS AND THE NAMES OF PRINCIPAL SUPPLIERS
We do not rely on any "real" raw materials to speak of as the marketable part of
our work will be the literature which will be representing. We plan to outsource
all of our editing and publicity work to third parties. Currently, we have not
retained editing personnel but we have retained The Marquis Group, LLC as Public
Relations Agent for RLA.
DEPENDENCE ON ONE OR A FEW MAJOR CUSTOMERS
We feel that, because of the potential wide base of customers for our products,
there will be no problem with dependence on one or few major customers.
PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, LICENSES, FRANCHISES, CONCESSIONS, ROYALTY AGREEMENTS OR
LABOR CONTRACTS
We currently have no patents or trademarks for our products or brand name;
however, as business is established and operations expand, we may seek such
protection. We act as Agents for our writers and so have limited rights and
access to published work while retained under contract.
NEED FOR ANY GOVERNMENT APPROVAL OF PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS OR SERVICES
None.
BANKRUPTCY OR SIMILAR PROCEEDINGS
There has been no bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding.
REORGANIZATION, PURCHASE OR SALE OF ASSETS
There have been no material reclassifications, mergers, consolidations, or
purchase or sale of a significant amount of assets not in the ordinary course of
business.
EFFECT OF EXISTING OR PROBABLE GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS ON THE BUSINESS
None.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES DURING THE LAST TWO YEARS
We have not expended funds for research and development costs since inception.
COSTS AND EFFECTS OF COMPLIANCE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS
None.
NUMBER OF TOTAL EMPLOYEES AND NUMBER OF FULL TIME EMPLOYEES
We currently have one employee, Ms. Mary Wolf who devotes full time to our
business.

REPORTS TO SECURITIES HOLDERS
We provide an annual report that includes audited financial information to our
shareholders. We will make our financial information equally available to any
interested parties or investors through compliance with the disclosure rules for
a small business issuer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We are
subject to disclosure filing requirements including filing Form 10K annually and
Form 10Q quarterly. In addition, we will file Form 8K and other proxy and
information statements from time to time as required. We do not intend to
voluntarily file the above reports in the event that our obligation to file such
reports is suspended under the Exchange Act. The public may read and copy any
materials that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, ("SEC"), at
the SEC's Public Reference Room at 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 20549. The
public may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by
calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC maintains an Internet site
(http://www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements,
and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should
carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this
prospectus before investing in our common stock. If any of the following risks
occur, our business, operating results and financial condition could be
seriously harmed. The trading price of our common stock, when and if we trade at
a later date, could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or
part of your investment.
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR BUSINESS
SINCE WE ARE A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY, HAVE GENERATED NO REVENUES AND LACK AN
OPERATING HISTORY, AN INVESTMENT IN THE SHARES OFFERED HEREIN IS HIGHLY RISKY
AND COULD RESULT IN A COMPLETE LOSS OF YOUR INVESTMENT IF WE ARE UNSUCCESSFUL IN
OUR BUSINESS PLANS.
Our company was incorporated on July 20, 2010; we have not yet commenced our
business operations; and we have not yet realized any revenues. We have no
operating history upon which an evaluation of our future prospects can be made.
Such prospects must be considered in light of the substantial risks, expenses
and difficulties encountered by new entrants into the highly competitive
literary agent industry. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and
positive cash flow is highly dependent upon a number of factors, including our
ability to attract and retain writers to represent and get their work edited and
to market for publishing, while keeping costs to a minimum. Based upon current
plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods as we incur
significant expenses associated with the initial startup of our business.
Further, we cannot guarantee that we will be successful in realizing revenues or
in achieving or sustaining positive cash flow at any time in the future. Any
such failure could result in the possible closure of our business or force us to
seek additional capital through loans or additional sales of our equity
securities to continue business operations, which would dilute the value of any
shares you purchase in this offering.
WE DO NOT YET HAVE ANY SUBSTANTIAL ASSETS AND ARE TOTALLY DEPENDENT UPON THE
PROCEEDS OF A CURRENT OFFERING TO FULLY FUND OUR BUSINESS.
The only cash currently available is the cash paid by our founder for the
acquisition of her shares. We are currently offering for sale a total of
3,000,000 shares of common stock at a fixed price of $.015 per share for the
duration of the offering, which will end on July 25, 2012. In the event we do
not sell all of the shares and raise the total offering proceeds, there can be
no assurance that we would be able to raise the additional funding needed to
fully implement our business plans or that unanticipated costs will not increase
our projected expenses for the year following completion of this offering. Our
auditors have expressed substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a
going concern.
WE DO NOT HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL SOURCE OF FUNDING FOR OUR BUSINESS PLANS AND MAY
BE UNABLE TO FIND ANY SUCH FUNDING IF AND WHEN NEEDED.
Other than the shares currently offered, no other source of capital has been has
been identified or sought. As a result we do not have an alternate source of
funds should we fail to complete the offering. If we do find an alternative
8
source of capital, the terms and conditions of acquiring such capital may result
in dilution and the resultant lessening of value of the shares of stockholders.
If we are not successful in raising sufficient capital through the offering, we
will be faced with several options:
1. abandon our business plans, cease operations and go out of business;
2. continue to seek alternative and acceptable sources of capital; or
3. bring in additional capital that may result in a change of control.
In the event of any of the above circumstances you could lose a substantial part
or all of your investment. In addition, there can no guarantee that the total
proceeds raised in the offering will be sufficient, as we have projected, to
fund our business plans or that we will be profitable. As a result, you could
lose any investment you make in our shares.
WE CANNOT PREDICT WHEN OR IF WE WILL PRODUCE REVENUES, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A
TOTAL LOSS OF YOUR INVESTMENT IF WE ARE UNSUCCESSFUL IN OUR BUSINESS PLANS.
Although we have had a few meetings with two authors to edit and represent their
work, we have not yet confirmed any representation contracts and have not yet
generated any revenues from operations. In order for us to continue with our
plans and open our business, we must raise our initial capital to do so through
this offering. The timing of the completion of the milestones needed to commence
operations and generate revenues is contingent on the success of the offering.
There can be no assurance that we will generate revenues or that revenues will
be sufficient to maintain our business. As a result, you could lose all of your
investment if you decide to purchase shares in this offering and we are not
successful in our proposed business plans.
OUR CONTINUED OPERATIONS DEPEND ON LITERARY TRENDS. IF OUR AUTHORS AND LITERARY
WORKS ARE NOT TRENDING TOPICS PUBLISHING HOUSES ARE LOOKING FOR THIS COULD BE
ADVERSELY AFFECTED.
The proper representation of trending and expert authors important to our
success and competitive position, and the inability to continue to develop and
offer such unique products to our customers could harm our business. We cannot
be certain that any author and his or her topic of literature will be in demand.
In addition, there are no assurances that our future authors will be successful,
and any unsuccessful literary representation could adversely affect our
business.
COMPETITION IN THE LITERARY INDUSTRY IS FIERCE. IF WE CAN NOT SUCCESSFULLY
COMPETE, OUR BUSINESS MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.
The literary publishing industry is intensely competitive and fragmented. We
will compete against a large number of well-established companies with greater
product and name recognition and with substantially greater financial, marketing
and distribution capabilities than ours, as well as against a large number of
small specialty producers. Our competitors include, by way of example, Wiley
Books, Fitzhenry Whiteside, Simon and Schuster and other well known and
respected publishers. There can be no assurance that we can compete successfully
in this complex and changing market. If we can not, our business will be
adversely affected.
BECAUSE OUR SOLE OFFICER AND/OR DIRECTOR HAS NO EXPERIENCE OR BACKGROUND IN
REPRESENTING AUTHORS OR IN THE LITERARY FIELD, THERE IS A HIGHER RISK OUR
BUSINESS WILL FAIL.
Our sole officer and director, Mary S. Wolf, has no experience or background in
representing authors or in the literary field. Her prior business experiences
have primarily been in manufacturing and tax accounting. With no direct training
or experience in the literary field, our management may not be fully aware of
the specific requirements related to working within this industry. Our
management's decisions and choices may not take into account standard procedures
or managerial approaches agents and literary companies commonly use.
Consequently, our operations, earnings, and ultimate financial success could
suffer irreparable harm due to management's lack of experience in this field.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR CURRENT OFFERING
BUYING LOW-PRICED PENNY STOCKS IS VERY RISKY AND SPECULATIVE.
The shares being offered are defined as a penny stock under the Securities and
Exchange Act of 1934, and rules of the Commission. The Exchange Act and such
penny stock rules generally impose additional sales practice and disclosure
requirements on broker-dealers who sell our securities to persons other than
certain accredited investors who are, generally, institutions with assets in
excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or
annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 jointly with spouse), or in
transactions not recommended by the broker-dealer. For transactions covered by
the penny stock rules, a broker-dealer must make a suitability determination for
each purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement prior to the sale.
In addition, the broker-dealer must make certain mandated disclosures in penny
stock transactions, including the actual sale or purchase price and actual bid
and offer quotations, the compensation to be received by the broker-dealer and
certain associated persons, and deliver certain disclosures required by the
Commission. Consequently, the penny stock rules may affect the ability of
broker-dealers to make a market in or trade our common stock and may also affect
your ability to resell any shares you may purchase in this offering in the
public markets. See the Plan of Distribution section.
WE ARE SELLING OUR OFFERING WITHOUT AN UNDERWRITER AND MAY BE UNABLE TO SELL ANY
SHARES.
The offering is self-underwritten, that is, we are not going to engage the
services of an underwriter to sell the shares; we intend to sell them through
our officer and director, who will receive no commissions. She will hold
investment meetings and invite friends, acquaintances and relatives in an effort
to sell the shares to them; however, there is no guarantee that she will be able
to sell any of the shares. In the event she does not sell all of the shares
before the expiration date of the offering, all funds raised will be promptly
returned to the investors, without interest or deduction.
DUE TO THE LACK OF A TRADING MARKET FOR OUR SECURITIES, YOU MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY
SELLING ANY SHARES YOU PURCHASE IN THIS OFFERING.
There is presently no demand for our common stock. There is presently no public
market for the shares being offered in this prospectus. We intend to contact a
market maker and have them file an application on our behalf for quotation of
the shares on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board. We estimate this process to
take 3 to 6 months to complete. As of the date of this filing, there have been
no discussions or understandings between RLA and anyone acting on our behalf,
with any market maker regarding participation in a future trading market for our
securities. We cannot guarantee that the application will be approved and our
stock listed and quoted for sale. If no market is ever developed for our common
stock, it will be difficult for an investor to sell any shares they purchase in
our offering. In such a case, they may find that they are unable to achieve any
benefit from their investment or liquidate the shares without considerable
delay, if at all. In addition, if we fail to have our common stock quoted on a
public trading market, the common stock purchased in the offering will not have
a quantifiable value and it may be difficult, if not impossible, to ever resell
the shares, resulting in an inability to realize any value from the investment.
WE WILL BE HOLDING ALL THE PROCEEDS FROM THE OFFERING IN A STANDARD BANK
CHECKING ACCOUNT UNTIL ALL THE SHARES ARE SOLD. BECAUSE THE PROCEEDS ARE NOT
HELD IN AN ESCROW OR TRUST ACCOUNT THERE IS A RISK THE MONEY WILL NOT BE
RETURNED IF ALL THE SHARES ARE NOT SOLD.
All funds received from the sale of shares in this offering will be deposited
into a standard bank checking account until all shares are sold and the offering
is closed, at which time, the proceeds will be transferred to our business
operating account. In the event all shares are not sold we have committed to
promptly return all funds to the original purchasers. However since the funds
will not be placed into an escrow, trust or other similar account, there can be
no guarantee that any third party creditor who may obtain a judgment or lien
against us would not satisfy the judgment or lien by executing on the bank
account where the offering proceeds are being held.
WE WILL INCUR ONGOING COSTS AND EXPENSES FOR SEC REPORTING AND COMPLIANCE.
WITHOUT REVENUE WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO REMAIN IN COMPLIANCE, MAKING IT DIFFICULT
FOR INVESTORS TO SELL THEIR SHARES, IF AT ALL.
10
Our business plan allows for the payment of the estimated $6,700 cost of this
registration statement to be paid from existing cash on hand. If necessary, our
director has verbally agreed to loan the Company funds to complete the
registration process. We plan to contact a market maker immediately following
the close of the offering to have the market maker file an application on our
behalf in order to make a market for our common stock and have the shares quoted
on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board. To be eligible for quotation, issuers must
remain current in their filings with the SEC. In order for us to remain in
compliance we will require future revenues to cover the cost of these filings,
which could comprise a substantial portion of our available cash resources. If
we are unable to generate sufficient revenues to remain in compliance it may be
difficult for you to resell any shares you may purchase, if at all.
MARY WOLF, A COMPANY DIRECTOR, BENEFICIALLY OWNS 100% OF THE OUTSTANDING SHARES
OF OUR COMMON STOCK. AFTER THE COMPLETION OF THIS OFFERING SHE WILL OWN 50% OF
THE OUTSTANDING SHARES. IF SHE CHOOSES TO SELL HER SHARES IN THE FUTURE IT MAY
HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT OF THE PRICE OF OUR STOCK.
Due to the amount of Ms. Wolf's share ownership in our company, if she chooses
to sell her shares in the public market, the market price of our stock could
decrease and all shareholders suffer a dilution of the value of their stock. If
she does sell any of his common stock, she will be subject to Rule 144 under the
1933 Securities Act which will restrict her ability to sell her shares.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
We do not currently own any property. We are currently operating out of the
premises of our President on a rent free basis while we are in the
organizational stage. We consider our current principal office space arrangement
adequate and will reassess our needs based upon the future growth of the
Company.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings, and we are not aware of
any pending or potential legal actions.
ITEM 4. [REMOVED & RESERVED]
PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
No public market currently exists for shares of our common stock. Following
completion of our current offering, we intend to contact a market maker and have
them file an application on our behalf for quotation of the shares on the
Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board. We estimate this process to take 3 to 6 months
to complete. As of the date of this filing, there have been no discussions or
understandings between RLA and anyone acting on our behalf, with any market
maker regarding participation in a future trading market for our securities.
PENNY STOCK RULES
The Securities and Exchange Commission has also adopted rules that regulate
broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny
stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other
than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on
the Nasdaq system, provided that current price and volume information with
respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or
system).
A purchaser is purchasing penny stock which limits the ability to sell the
stock. Our shares will remain penny stocks for the foreseeable future. The
classification of penny stock makes it more difficult for a broker-dealer to
sell the stock into a secondary market, which makes it more difficult for a
purchaser to liquidate his/her investment. Any broker-dealer engaged by the
purchaser for the purpose of selling his or her shares in us will be subject to
Rules 15g-1 through 15g-10 of the Securities and Exchange Act. Rather than
creating a need to comply with those rules, some broker-dealers will refuse to
attempt to sell penny stock.
11
The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny
stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk
disclosure document, which:
a. contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market
for penny stock in both public offerings and secondary trading;
b. contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the
customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with
respect to a violation of such duties or other requirements of the
Securities Act of 1934, as amended;
c. contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market,
including "bid" and "ask" price for the penny stock and the
significance of the spread between the bid and ask price;
d. contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary
actions;
e. defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct
of trading penny stocks; and
f. contains such other information and is in such form (including
language, type, size and format) as the Securities and Exchange
Commission shall require by rule or regulation;
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a
penny stock, to the customer:
a. the bid and offer quotations for the penny stock;
b. the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the
transaction;
c. the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other
comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the
market for such stock; and
d. monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny
stock held in the customer's account.
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a
penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a
special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for
the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt
of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving
penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.
These disclosure requirements will have the effect of reducing the trading
activity in the secondary market for our stock because it will be subject to
these penny stock rules. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling
their securities.
SECURITIES AUTHORIZED FOR ISSUANCE UNDER EQUITY COMPENSATION PLANS
We do not have any equity compensation plans.
SECTION 16(a)
Based solely upon a review of Form 3 and 4 furnished by us under Rule 16a-3(d)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we are not aware of any individual who
failed to file a required report on a timely basis required by Section 16(a) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES BY THE ISSUER AND AFFILIATED PURCHASERS
There were no purchases of shares of our common stock by us or any affiliated
purchasers during the year ended December 31, 2011.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
We are still in our development stage and have generated no revenue to date. We
incurred operating expenses of $13,310 and $770 for the years ended December 31,
2011 and 2010, respectively. These expenses consisted of general and
administrative expenses. At December 31, 2011, we had cash on hand of $920 and
$5,000 in outstanding liabilities.
We received our initial funding of $15,000 through the sale of common stock to
Mary Wolf, our CEO, who purchased 3,000,000 shares of our common stock at $0.005
per share on July 20, 2010, the investment by the existing stockholder includes
a subscription receivable of $5,000. From inception until the date of this
filing we have had no operating activities. Our financial statements from
inception (July 20, 2010) through December 31, 2011 report no revenues and net
losses of $14,080.
The following table provides selected financial data about our company for the
period from the date of incorporation through December 31, 2011 and 2010.
Balance Sheet Data: 12/31/11 12/31/10
------------------- -------- --------
Cash $ 920 9,230
Total assets $ 920 9,230
Total liabilities $ 5,000 0
Shareholders' equity $ (4,080) 9,230
Our auditors have expressed their doubt about our ability to continue as a going
concern unless we are able to generate profitable operations.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We currently have $920 cash in the bank which comprises our total assets.
Management believes that the current cash is not sufficient to fund operations
for the next twelve months. To meet our need for cash we are attempting to raise
money from our current offering. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to
sell all the shares required. Our director has verbally agreed to advance funds
as needed for filing and professional fees until the offering is completed or
failed. While she has agreed to advance the funds, the agreement is verbal and
is unenforceable as a matter of law.
We currently have no plans to hire additional employees in the next twelve
months unless sales are sufficient to cover the cost.
Plan of Operation
The following criteria for the milestones are based on estimates derived from
research and marketing data accumulated by our director. They are estimates
only. We will require the funding from our offering in order to fully implement
our business plan. The following chart outlines how we plan to use the proceeds
from the offering.
Planned Expenditures Over
Category The Next 12 Months
-------- ------------------
Advertising & Marketing $13,500
Website Design $ 6,000
Equipment $ 2,500
Accounting, Auditing & Legal $10,500
Office & Administration $ 7,500
Working Capital $ 5,000
TOTAL PROCEEDS TO COMPANY $45,000
13
The milestones for the twelve months following funding are:
FIRST QUARTER
We will produce executed contracts with the two authors who have asked us to
work with them in editing book outlines and direct the creation of manuscripts
in order to commercialize a publishing contract. In other words once we have a
manuscript synopsis and outline this will allow us to speak to potential
publishing houses in North America to secure a publishing contract for our
contracted authors. Author bios will be completed as well as headshots and
chapter outlines for each author. The Website for the company will be designed
and written to reflect service and genres of focus. We will also be securing
freelance editors to work with each author to complete chapter outlines and
synopsis of book.
We will complete the website for RedStone Literary Agents LLC. This site will in
addition to showing scope of service will also promote the two authors under
contract. The site will give a sampling from a few chapters of their work. In
addition, we will begin researching literary shows to attend in order to bid
publishing deals. These shows will also serve as a vehicle to secure additional
representation of other up and coming authors. We will investigate industry
groups to subscribe to like the Association of Authors Representatives Inc. We
will conduct interviews to hire a Publicist to give Authors advance promotion.
If resources are available, it would be strategic to attend Book Expo America in
New York (May 23-26). We believe the Book Expo will show us the leading genres
that book publishers are currently sourcing. As well, other agents will be
looking for some other regional agents to assist with PR and also speaking
engagements for new releases. If funding is not available we will find another
similar trade show to attend later in the year.
(Estimated expenses: Advertising and Marketing $4,000, Website Design $4,000,
Accounting, Auditing & Legal $2,500, Office & Administration $1,500, Working
Capital $1,250 - Total $13,250)
SECOND QUARTER
If resources are available we will hire a part time assistant who will be
responsible for many aspects of our operation, from administration to book title
procurement. A book selling strategy will be agreed upon to find the right
publisher in order to negotiate successful publishing deals. We will engage in a
search engine optimization campaign to assist us with awareness for our authors.
Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the visibility of a
website or a web page in search engines via the "natural" or un-paid search
results. In general, the earlier (or higher on the page), and more frequently a
site appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from
the search engine's users. As an Internet marketing strategy, SEO considers how
search engines work, what people search for, the actual search terms typed into
search engines and which search engines are preferred by their targeted
audience. Optimizing a website may involve editing its content and HTML and
associated coding to both increase its relevance to specific keywords and to
remove barriers to the indexing activities of search engines. If an author is
looking for a literary agent it is likely that they will either look for this
via contacts in the industry or through conducting a search on the internet. A
SEO campaign would assist RedStone in attracting incremental business.
In addition we will launch with a PR campaign consisting of various lectures and
radio interviews to help brand each author and promote content of book. The area
of focus for our literary agency will be to focus on authors in the field of
health and wellness.
Chapter outlines and book manuscripts should be completed for both authors
represented. A campaign will also take place to continue to secure additional
authors. This will be an ongoing task to keep feelers out to prospective authors
looking to publish his or her work. We need to launch a networking strategy in
order to find places which RedStone can make contact with more publishers and
editors. These include conferences, workshops, seminars both online and in
person. As a back up we also need to plan a strategy for self-publishing that
would include an investor package for funding.
14
(Estimated expenses: Advertising and Marketing $2,000, Website Design $2,000,
Equipment $2,500, Accounting, Auditing & Legal $2,500, Office & Administration
$2,000, Working Capital $1,250 - Total $12,250)
THIRD QUARTER
Final edits to take place for manuscripts in order to secure publishing
contracts. We will be sourcing retails contacts to ensure distribution to lineup
with PR Campaigns. Retail contacts will be comprised of both offline and online
retailers. For example, we will look to secure books to be downloaded via Itunes
or purchased at Barnes and Noble. Both outlets provide a retail connection for
consumers to purchase the book titles.
(Estimated expenses: Advertising and Marketing $4,000, Accounting, Auditing &
Legal $2,500, Office & Administration $2,000, Working Capital $1,250 - Total
$9,750)
FOURTH QUARTER
A PR campaign for completed manuscript Authors will still extend to radio and
seminars in regional areas. As we procure more authors the process of going from
outlines, edit and manuscript rotate with networking and PR support. An author
would appear on various regional media outlets to not only share the new book
but also share that he or she will be speaking in the area at a specific
location. For example, if one of our titles is written by a Cardiologist on the
topic of heart disease we would have him or her on media outlets to talk about
the new book and also share that Dr. XYZ will be having a seminar at location AA
and it is open to the public. Typically speaking events result in increased
awareness and incremental book sales. Books would also be on sale at the
seminar.
(Estimated expenses: Advertising and Marketing $3,500, Accounting, Auditing &
Legal $3,000, Office & Administration $2,000, Working Capital $1,250 - Total
$9,750)
Our continued operations depend on literary trends. If our authors and literary
works are not trending topics publishing houses are looking for this could
adversely affect our business. The proper representation of trending and expert
authors important to our success and competitive position, and the inability to
continue to develop and offer such unique products to our customers could harm
our business. We cannot be certain that any author and his or her topic of
literature will be in demand. In addition, there are no assurances that our
future authors will be successful, and any unsuccessful literary representation
could adversely affect our business.
Competition in the literary industry is fierce. If we can not successfully
compete, our business may be adversely affected. If we are able to establish our
business we will compete against a large number of well-established companies
with greater product and name recognition and with substantially greater
financial, marketing and distribution capabilities than ours, as well as against
a large number of small specialty producers. There can be no assurance that we
can compete successfully in this complex and changing market.
CURRENT MARKET TRENDS
Management believes E-Books are becoming a larger and larger revenue stream for
book publishers. Without a doubt, the e-book is the biggest thing that's hit the
publishing industry since the invention of movable type. Publishers and e-book
resellers are reporting strong growth. In 2010 year, the publishers surveyed by
the Association of American Publishers saw 8.3 percent of domestic net sales
from e-books. Three months into 2011, Simon and Schuster's e-book sales had
climbed to 17 percent of revenue; at Hachette, parent company of Little, Brown,
the figure was 22 percent. From November to May, according to a Pew Internet
Project study, the percentage of American adults with a dedicated e-reader (like
a Nook or Kindle) leaped from 6 percent to 12 percent. Another 8 percent now
have tablets. To add a little context, fewer than half of Americans even buy a
book in a typical year. So for 12 percent of all Americans to have an e-reader
is not trivial.
15
Meanwhile, print sales are down about 25 percent. Physical bookstores, including
the Borders chain, which is in bankruptcy reorganization, are on the rocks,
rapidly adding stationery sections and ticketed author events to make up for
plummeting book sales. And Amazon, which offers books in every possible format
but is heavily promoting its proprietary Kindle device, announced in January
2011 that it is now selling more copies digitally than in paperback.
USA TODAY added e-book bestsellers to its list in July 2009. The USA TODAY list
differs from the Times list in that it is a single list including hardcover and
paperback, e-books, fiction and nonfiction, and all genres in one list. (It also
does not exclude "evergreen" titles.") "The aim of the list is to tell our
readers what the ranking of titles was in a particular week," says Anthony
DeBarros, USA TODAY's Senior Database Editor. If a title is released in
hardcover and is published six months later in paperback and e-formats, "we take
the sales of all those formats and put them together so that a book's rank is
determined by a combination of sales for e-books and whatever print format it's
selling in. For some titles, we track several different ISBNs and put those all
together." The list does note which format was the bestselling for that week.
We will be focusing on e-books as they are relatively inexpensive to get to
market and in the hands of readers than paperbacks or hard cover. We will market
by sending chapters to book reviewers and also build a database of customers for
the launch of each book title. Management believes e-books will only get more
inexpensive (relative to hardcover) as there is so much content going digital
that any barriers to entry are being minimized or eliminated. We believe the key
will be to secure engaging authors in the growing segments in self-help,
alternative medicine and new age health.
FUTURE TRENDS TO WATCH
1. Enhanced E-Books Are Coming and Will Only Get Better
Consumers have already shown that they love e-books for their convenience and
accessibility, but ultimately most e-books today are the same as print, just in
digital form. The e-book of the not-too-distant future will be much more than
text. Interactivity has arrived and will change the nature of the e-book.
Whether a consumer's choice is Kindle or iPad, Management believes the war of
devices soon will not matter as many will have the same titles to offer
consumers for sale and enjoyment. Management believes the real opportunity for
publishers will be to develop e-books that offer interactive features. We
believe customers will demand interactive books that provide a much better, more
informed and enriching experience. For them, the experience (not the cost) is
often the primary driver.
2. The Contextual Upsell Will be a Business Model to Watch
E-books allow publishers to interact with their customers in new ways. For
example a customer is trying to learn statistics and gets stuck on a particular
formula. They ask friends but no one can explain it well. They're stuck. They
click a help button, which points them to the publisher site where they can
download relevant tutorials about specific formulas for $2.99. They choose the
one they need and get a new learning tool, which helps them progress in their
class. Multiply this by hundreds of thousands of students who share similar
learning gaps who will purchase through the book ("in-book app purchase") and it
becomes a new marketing opportunity.
3. Publishers Will Be More Important Than Ever
Despite the hype around self-publishing via the web, we believe publishing
houses will play an even greater role in an e-book world. Commodity content is
everywhere (and largely free), so high-quality vetted, edited content -- which
takes a staff of experts -- will be worth a premium.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably
likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in
financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity,
capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
16
LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY; NEED FOR ADDITIONAL CAPITAL
There is no historical financial information about us on which to base an
evaluation of our performance. We are a development stage company and have not
generated revenues from operations. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in
our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the
establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources,
possible delays in implementing our business plan, and possible cost overruns
due to increases in the cost of services.
To become profitable and competitive, we must implement our business plan and
generate revenue. We are seeking funding from our current offering to provide
the capital required to implement the business plan. We believe that the funds
from our current offering will allow us to operate for one year.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors
Redstone Literary Agents, Inc.
Phoenix, Arizona
I have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Redstone Literary Agents, Inc.
(a development stage company) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related
statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year ended
December 31, 2011, for the period from July 20, 2010 (inception) through
December 31, 2010, and for the period from July 20, 2010 (inception) through
December 31, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on my audit.
I conducted my audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that I plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. I believe that my audit provides a reasonable
basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Redstone Literary Agents, Inc. as
of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the year ended December 31, 2011, for the period from July 20, 2010
(inception) through December 31, 2010, and for the period from July 20, 2010
(inception) through December 31, 2011 in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the
financial statements the Company has suffered a loss from operations and has
limited working capital that raise substantial doubt about its ability to
continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are
also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Redstone Literary Agents, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2011
(A Development Stage Company)
(Expressed in US Dollars)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
Redstone Literary Agents, Inc. ("the Company") was incorporated under the laws
of State of Nevada, U.S. on July 20, 2010, with an authorized capital of
75,000,000 common shares with a par value of $0.001. The Company's year end is
the end of December. The Company is in the development stage of its publishing
service business. During the period ended December 31, 2010, the Company
commenced operations by issuing shares.
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which
assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its
liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The
Company has incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit
of $14,080 as at December 31, 2011 and further losses are anticipated in the
development of its business raising substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going
concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the
future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and
repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come
due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months
with existing cash on hand and loans from directors and or private placement of
common stock.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are
presented in US dollars.
Development Stage Company
The Company complies with the ASC 915, its characterization of the Company as a
development stage enterprise.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
The carrying value of cash and accounts payable and accrued liabilities
approximates their fair value because of the short maturity of these
instruments. Unless otherwise noted, it is management's opinion the Company is
not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these
financial instruments.
Income Taxes
The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under
this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the
estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial
statement carrying values and their respective income tax basis (temporary
differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a
change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the
enactment date.
At December 31, 2011, a full deferred tax asset valuation allowance has been
provided and no deferred tax asset has been recorded.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Earning Per Share
The Company computes loss per share in accordance with ASC 105, "Earnings per
Share" which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share
on the face of the statement of operations. Basic loss per share is computed by
dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average
number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted loss per share
gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the
period. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their
effect is anti-dilutive.
The Company has no potential dilutive instruments and accordingly basic loss and
diluted loss per share are equal.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company accounts for employee and non-employee stock awards under ASC 718,
whereby equity instruments issued to employees for services are recorded based
on the fair value of the instrument issued and those issued to non-employees are
recorded based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value
of the equity instrument, whichever is more reliably measurable.
3. COMMON STOCK
The total number of common shares authorized that may be issued by the Company
is 75,000,000 shares with a par value of one tenth of one cent ($0.001) per
share and no other class of shares is authorized.
During the period ended December 31, 2010, the Company issued 3,000,000 shares
of common stock for total cash proceeds of $15,000. At December 31, 2011 there
were no outstanding stock options or warrants.
4. INCOME TAXES
As of December 31, 2011, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of
approximately $14,080 that may be available to reduce future years' taxable
income through 2030. Future tax benefits which may arise as a result of these
losses have not been recognized in these financial statements, as their
realization is determined not likely to occur and accordingly, the Company has
recorded a valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating to these tax
loss carry-forwards.
5. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date of issuance of
these financial statements and determined that thee are no reportable subsequent
events.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Management maintains "disclosure controls and procedures," as such term is
defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
"Exchange Act"), that are designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange
Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and
communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure.
In connection with the preparation of this annual report on Form 10-K, an
evaluation was carried out by management, with the participation of the Chief
Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)
under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2011.
Based on that evaluation, management concluded, as of the end of the period
covered by this report, that our disclosure controls and procedures were
effective such that the material information required to be included in our
Securities and Exchange Commission reports is accumulated and communicated to
our management, including our principal executive and financial officer,
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified
in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms relating to our company,
particularly during the period when this report was being prepared.
MANAGEMENT'S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and
15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, for the Company.
Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail,
accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
(2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to
permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made
only in accordance with authorizations of its management and directors; and (3)
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a
material effect on the financial statements.
Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness
of any system of internal control, and accordingly, even effective internal
control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial
statement preparation and may not prevent or detect material misstatements. In
addition, effective internal control at a point in time may become ineffective
in future periods because of changes in conditions or due to deterioration in
the degree of compliance with our established policies and procedures.
A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant
deficiencies, that results in there being a more than remote likelihood that a
material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be
prevented or detected.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer, management conducted an evaluation of the
effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, as of the
Evaluation Date, based on the framework set forth in Internal Control-Integrated
Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission (COSO). Based on its evaluation under this framework, management
concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective
as of the Evaluation Date.
25
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over
financial reporting as of Evaluation Date and identified the following material
weaknesses:
INSUFFICIENT RESOURCES: We have an inadequate number of personnel with requisite
expertise in the key functional areas of finance and accounting.
INADEQUATE SEGREGATION OF DUTIES: We have an inadequate number of personnel to
properly implement control procedures.
LACK OF AUDIT COMMITTEE & OUTSIDE DIRECTORS ON THE COMPANY'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS:
We do not have a functioning audit committee or outside directors on the
Company's Board of Directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the
establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures.
Management is committed to improving its internal controls and will (1) continue
to use third party specialists to address shortfalls in staffing and to assist
the Company with accounting and finance responsibilities, (2) increase the
frequency of independent reconciliations of significant accounts which will
mitigate the lack of segregation of duties until there are sufficient personnel
and (3) may consider appointing outside directors and audit committee members in
the future.
Due to the nature of this material weakness, there is a more than remote
likelihood that misstatements which could be material to the annual or interim
financial statements could occur that would not be prevented or detected.
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered
public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.
Management's report was not subject to attestation by the our registered public
accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide
only management's report in this annual report.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS
As of the end of the period covered by this report, there have been no changes
in Redstone Literary Agents' internal controls over financial reporting during
the year ended December 31, 2011, that materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting
subsequent to the date of management's last evaluation.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION ABOUT OUR OFFICER AND DIRECTOR
Mary S. Wolf, EA has been President, CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors
of the Company since inception. From January 1998 to present she has owned and
operated a Tax Accounting business, Mary S. Wolf, EA, Phoenix, Arizona. On
August 9th, 1995 she received her Enrolled Agent Certificate which allows her to
practice before the Internal Revenue Service. An Enrolled Agent (EA) is a tax
professional who has passed an IRS test covering all aspects of taxation, plus
passed an IRS background check. Enrolled Agents have passed a two-day, 8-hour
examination. The examination covers all aspects of federal tax law, including
the taxation of individuals, corporations, partnerships, and various regulations
governing IRS collections and audit procedures. Like CPAs and tax attorneys, EAs
can handle any type of tax matter and represent their client's interests before
the IRS. Unlike CPAs and tax attorneys, Enrolled Agents are tested directly by
the IRS, and enrolled agents focus exclusively on tax accounting. From January
1990 to April 1997 Ms. Wolf worked for H&R Block preparing tax returns for their
Phoenix, Arizona personal and business district offices. From June 1987 through
December 1989, she was employed by Syntellect, Inc., Phoenix, Arizona, a voice
response hardware manufacturer as an installer of their software domestically
and internationally. Prior to June of 1987 she was a controller for a
multi-company group that computerized equipment for manufacturers, sold all
types of metal and woodworking machinery , and developed specialized machinery
for businesses, Quality Machine Tools, Inc., Quantum Machine Services, Inc. and
Falcon Manufacturing, Inc.
SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors and
executive officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of our common
stock, to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of
ownership and reports of changes of ownership of our common stock. Officers,
directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC
regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
We intend to ensure to the best of our ability that all Section 16(a) filing
requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than ten percent
beneficial owners are complied with in a timely fashion.
CODE OF ETHICS
We do not currently have a code of ethics, because we have only limited business
operations and only one officer and director, we believe a code of ethics would
have limited utility. We intend to adopt such a code of ethics as our business
operations expand and we have more directors, officers and employees.
ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Currently our officer and director receives no compensation for her services
during the development stage of our business operations. She is reimbursed for
any out-of-pocket expenses she may incur on our behalf. In the future, we may
approve payment of salaries for officers and directors, but currently, no such
plans have been approved. We do not have any employment agreements in place with
our officer and director. We also do not currently have any benefits, such as
health or life insurance, available to our employee.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

shares of our common stock owned beneficially as of the date of this prospectus
by: (i) each person (including any group) known to us to own more than five
percent (5%) of any class of our voting securities, (ii) our directors, and or

sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares shown.

----------
(1) A beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or
indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship,
or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to
vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which
includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain
shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if,
for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the
shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a
person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon
exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the
information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any
person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of
shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason
of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding
shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect
the person's actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of
shares of common stock actually outstanding as of the date of this
prospectus. As of the date of this prospectus, there were 3,000,000 shares
of our common stock issued and outstanding.
FUTURE SALES BY EXISTING STOCKHOLDERS
A total of 3,000,000 shares have been issued to the existing stockholder, all of
which are held by Ms. Wolf, the officer and director of the Company and are
restricted securities, as that term is defined in Rule 144 of the Rules and
Regulations of the SEC promulgated under the Act. Under Rule 144, such shares
can be publicly sold, subject to volume restrictions and certain restrictions on
the manner of sale, commencing six months after their acquisition.
Rule 144(i)(1) states that the Rule 144 safe harbor is not available for the
resale of securities "initially issued" by a shell company (other than a
business combination related shell company) or an issuer that has "at any time
previously" been a shell company (other than a business combination related
shell company). Consequently, the Rule 144 safe harbor is not available for the
resale of such securities unless and until all of the conditions in Rule
144(i)(2) are satisfied at the time of the proposed sale.
Any sale of shares held by the existing stockholder (after applicable
restrictions expire) and/or the sale of shares purchased in this offering (which
would be immediately resalable after the offering), may have a depressive effect
on the price of our common stock in any market that may develop, of which there
can be no assurance. Our principal shareholder does not have any plans to sell
his shares at any time after this offering is complete.
ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR

the loan bears no interest rate, and has no term of repayment.
30
We do not currently have any conflicts of interest by or among our current
officer, director, key employee or advisors. We have not yet formulated a policy
for handling conflicts of interest; however, we intend to do so upon completion
of this offering and, in any event, prior to hiring any additional employees.
We do not currently have an independent director serving on the Board of
Directors.
